A California mother has filed a lawsuit against several different Shasta County institutions over the slaughtering of her 9-year-old daughter’s pet goat. Jessica Long originally filed the lawsuit in August against multiple sheriff's deputies; the lawsuit was amended last month to include the Shasta District Fair and Event Center (referred to as the Shasta Fair Association), the Shasta County Sheriff’s Department and Shasta County. It states that in July, two Shasta County sheriff’s deputies drove over 500 miles to Sonoma County to confiscate Long’s daughter’s pet goat, Cedar, and return him to the Shasta Fair Association to be slaughtered.
